AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but based on the provided text, I cannot extract the information required to describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria. The document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a device called PLACER™, an implanted spinal cord stimulator. It confirms that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.

However, this letter does not contain details about:

  • Specific acceptance criteria used in performance studies.
  • The actual performance metrics of the device against any criteria.
  • Information about sample sizes for test or training sets.
  • Data provenance, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods for ground truth.
  • Whether MRMC studies were conducted or the effect size of AI assistance.
  • Standalone algorithm performance.
  • The type of ground truth used.

All the requested study and performance-related details are absent from this regulatory clearance document.
